The emperor plays a rogue: a cute little gambling concubine

Chapter 171 Prison Escape
Su Qinyue tossed and tossed for an hour, and fell asleep when she was tired from crying and fussing. Lian Yu ordered her servants to take good care of her, and quietly exited her bedroom and went to the study.

The spies in the palace were waiting for Lian Yu in the study at this time, Lian Yu pushed the door open and saw a man in black standing with his back facing him, when he heard the sound, the man turned around and shouted respectfully: "Lord Yu. "

Lian Yu had been tossing around with Su Qinyue just now, and he was really tired physically and mentally. He waved his hand, sat down on the chair behind the desk, and got straight to the point.

"Tell me, what have you found in the palace these two days? Have you found that maid?"

The man shook his head, "The maids in Qinxiu Palace have all been checked, and there is no such suspicious person as the prince said."

"No one suspicious?" Lian Yu frowned, how could this be possible?

"When the queen died of poison, did they all have evidence of their alibi?"

"Back to the prince, it is true."

Things are really done seamlessly, much like someone's style.Lian Yu rested with his eyes closed, the corners of his mouth slightly raised.

His slender knuckles tapped on the mahogany desk. He thought for a while, opened his eyes, and said, "Even if a person is perfect, there will always be loopholes in doing things. Let's check those court ladies again. This king wants to find Li Empress." The nearest person."

"Yes, my lord!" The man cupped his hands, took the order and jumped out of the study.

After the man left, Lian Yu frowned and thought about Su Qinyue's abnormal attitude just now.

In Qinxiu Palace that night, was there anyone else besides her?
Qin Yue's eyes couldn't see anything, she didn't know what Su Qinxiu looked like when he died, but she was so sure just now that he lied to her at that time.

The corner of Lian Yu's mouth raised a confident smile, the fox's tail was always showing, so he just waited and watched.

After two days, a group of ministers headed by the prime minister haunted Lian Jing all day and all night as if they had made an appointment, so that Lian Jing couldn't spare time to see Sun Xiaoxi.

Xiaomazi would occasionally bring snacks to comfort Sun Xiaoxi, but she only wanted to see Lian Jing, and despite being disappointed, she did not forget to be considerate of Lian Jing.

The autumn night was cold and lonely, and Sun Xiaoxi couldn't sleep well wrapped in a quilt, and it was even harder for the guards at the door.

A burst of fragrance drifted by, and with a bang, the guards at the door fell down one after another, and the sound of the cell door opening sounded. Sun Xiaoxi was sleepy and turned over, with both hands outstretched, and a sweet smile on the corner of her mouth.

"You're finally here, give me a hug." She thought it must be Lian Jing.

"Hmph." The visitor sneered, stretched out his hand and picked her up from the bed, "I know you have always been unrestrained, but you are so enthusiastic in the middle of the night, is this really okay?"

With a gentle voice mixed with ridicule, Sun Xiaoxi suddenly woke up, and when she opened her eyes, she met Lian Zichen's pair of brown and black eyes.

Pushing him away, Sun Xiaoxi pulled the quilt to wrap herself tightly, "You... why are you here?" Turning her face to look at the guards outside the cell, she couldn't help but frown when she saw them all fall down.

"Xiaoxi, you haven't seen this king for several days, right? Is that how you treat your old friends?" Lian Zichen chuckled lightly, he seemed indifferent to her defensive appearance.

"You are a bad visitor, it's normal for me to be on guard against you!" Sun Xiaoxi replied as a matter of course.

"Didn't you say that you want to be friends with me? My friend is in trouble, so why can't I come to see you?" Lian Zichen reached out to touch her cold face, and frowned slightly, obviously dissatisfied Her living environment at this time.

Sun Xiaoxi turned her face to avoid his hand, looking a little impatient, she hurriedly said: "You can see it now, can you go? It's the middle of the night, if you don't sleep, I will sleep!"

Lian Zichen gave a wicked smile, clasped her waist with his big hands, and he hugged her completely.

Sun Xiaoxi panicked for a while, afraid of being thrown to the ground by him, she quickly put her arms around his neck.

"Lian Zichen! What do you want to do?!"

Lian Zichen shrugged his shoulders, pretending to be a good gentleman, "Aren't you sleepy and want to sleep? Is this kind of place a place where people live? This king will take you out now." Saying that, he Holding her, I wanted to walk towards the main entrance.

What? !To escape from prison? !Sun Xiaoxi didn't do it even if she was beaten to death. Doesn't she tacitly assume that she did the killing of Su Qinxiu by escaping?She won't eat this dumb.

"Lian Zichen! Let me down quickly! It's not like I won't go with you!"

"Why? You obviously slept so restlessly in the prison just now, but this king wants you to sleep better."

"You, I appreciate your kindness, but I really can't leave!" Sun Xiaoxi raised her hand and beat him on the chest, but he refused to let go, so she simply pinched his ear.

When had the dignified Prince Lian's body been so presumptuous by a woman?Lian Zichen surprisingly didn't find her behavior annoying.

Pausing in his tracks, he lowered his gaze to meet her star-like eyeballs.

"That's why you trust Lian Jing?" Lian Zichen asked seriously.

"What?" Sun Xiaoxi didn't understand why he asked so suddenly.

"Murdering the queen is a capital crime. If Lian Jing can't help you get cleared of the crime, then you will die in the end." He began to threaten her.

If she can't be cleared of the crime, she can only die?The more Sun Xiaoxi thought about it, the more frightened she felt.

"This king will give you two choices now. One is to continue to struggle here and believe that Lian Jing will wait for death, and the other is to leave now with this king. This king will guarantee you freedom and happiness for the rest of your life." Lian Zichen smiled gently, but Behind the benevolent eyebrows, Sun Xiaoxi couldn't guess his intentions.

Sun Xiaoxi was silent for a while, lowered her eyes, but she still struggled out of his embrace.

She didn't answer his choice with words, but told him with actions that she believed in Lian Jing.

She jumped out of his arms, turned around and walked towards the cell where she was just now, and obediently climbed onto the bed, embracing her body in an extremely insecure posture.

Her actions were completely within Lian Zichen's expectations, he curled his lips and walked towards her cell.

Sun Xiaoxi looked up at him, and seeing that he hadn't left, she whispered, "Get out of here quickly, if Lian Jing comes, you will definitely quarrel again."

Lian Zichen raised his hand and patted her on the head, jokingly said, "The king and the emperor are not women, do you think the way we solve the problem is to quarrel?"

Sun Xiaoxi sighed, frowned and looked at him with an ugly expression.

"Lian Zichen, can I ask you a question?"

Lian Zichen lowered his eyes, and sat down beside her, with the appearance of "I'll talk to you".

She looked at him seriously, and said seriously, "Su Qinxiu, did you kill him?"

Hearing the question, Lian Zichen still didn't change his face, he smiled indifferently and asked, "What do you think?"

Sun Xiaoxi shook her head with a smile, her voice was a little sarcastic, "Do I think so?" With a smile on her face, she put away the kind expression on her face, "I don't think you killed Su Qinxiu, since you are smart, how could you kill him?" Do it yourself?"

"So you think the king sent someone to kill him?"

This time, Sun Xiaoxi did not deny it again, she really thought so.

She knew the cruel heart under his smiling face.

Seeing her cold face, Lian Zichen shook his head a little disappointed, "I never expected you to distrust me so much."

"It's not that I don't believe you, it's just that I know you too well." Sun Xiaoxi looked sideways at his handsome face, "Su Qinxiu is the eyeliner you planted next to Lian Jing, you know she betrayed you , of course you will not let her live."

What a smart and transparent girl, she really knows everything.

Lian Zichen lowered his eyes, put away the gentle smile on his face, and his expression became dark and terrifying.

"Xiaoxi, this king never treats his own people poorly. The fault of this matter lies with Su Qinxiu, not this king."
